Primary Identifier | MGI:1916977 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 5 | NCBI Gene Number | 69727 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables deubiquitinase activity. Involved in regulation of GABAergic synaptic transmission. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including adult feeding behavior; behavioral fear response; and behavioral response to ethanol. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytosol; glutamatergic synapse; and nucleus. Is expressed in cerebral cortex intermediate zone; cortical plate; and pancreas epithelium. Orthologous to human USP46 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 46). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a gene trap allele exhibit reduced depression-related behaviors. [provided by MGI curators] |
